Tapping into Joy - Giving Young People Hope in Times of Uncertainty

Abstract

In this section Jacqui will share some of key insights having taught the Greatfulness program to thousands of primary school children over the past four years. Jacqui will set the foundations for self-leadership through exploring topics such as self-care, self-belief and self-love.

Jacqui will also reflect on how creativity and flow can help young people tap into a greater sense of wellbeing and will consider the role of music in a young person's life. She will also talk about making the most of our imaginations and guide participants through a fun 'Headventure' (whichi is similar to a meditation/ visualisation practice) so that they too can experience what Jacqui shares with her students.

This session will hopefully awaken the participants curiosity, and invite a sense of wonder and will ultimately guide them to reflect on their own self-care and wellbeing. The real question is: how can we all bring a little more joy into our lives; despite the challenges?
